Would It Be Possible To Get Help Finding This Song?
Greg picks out all his songs. He is really into music. Just contact him directly. He would probably be happy to tell you who he was playing.  
Tube rolling suggestions
I have had a Rogue Amp for a few years, and have done extensive tube rolling. I like the Mullards for the input tubes and I love the winged "C" Svetlana KT88's for the output stage. 
Can I use the BFA style plugs on Vandersteens?
Older style Vandersteen 1B and 2C, 2CE series used strictly banana plugs. I don't know about the 3 series. 
Vandersteen 2CE Signature dimensions
I have the sigs and the base extends 5 inches beyond the back of the speaker (which is 10 inches deep). 
Powercord recommendations on CAL 15 & Rogue 66/99
I use PS Audio Statements on my 66/99. If you want to go cheaper, try the PS Audio plus cable. 
tube suggestions for cj MV50?
Violaguy; I have had a MV-50 for a number of years. I also had reliability problems with Svetlana. I bought some used Mullard EL34's abaout 1 1/2 years ago and never looked back. They have way more bass than the Svetlana in my system. You can pay... 
Best tubes for Conrad-Johnson MV-50 or MV-52?
I use Mullard EL34's for my CJ MV50. I bought them used on Ebay. I like them better than the Svetlana with Vandersteen 2CE Sigs. As far as 5751,I like the old RCA. 
Blowing Fuses in a Tube Amp
I have a CJ MV-50. It was blowing fuses, I think it was the Svetlana EL34's. I replaced them with old Mullards that BARELY tested good and have not had a problem. So I think maybe you should try different tubes. The Mullards also sound better. 
Best CD AND SACD Player under 1000
I've had the Sony 9000es. It sounded fake to me. I also had the Rega Planet 2000. With good interconnects it sounded good. Good bass, too. Now I have the Ah! Tjoeb and the tube sound is wonderful. A friend just purchased the new Jolida 100 tube pl... 
Planet 2000 Interconnect, please help
Ptm, I had the same problem but settled on the Kimber Silver Streaks. Give them a try. They worked for me, and they are not expensive. 
12au7
I use Mullards. I think that is what you are looking for. They are like RCA, but more of it.david 
Tubes for Herron's Preamp
I guess the obvious choices certainly are Mullard/Amperex/Telefunken. I have the Mullards in my Rogue 66 preamp and like their bassy warmth, if that is what you are into. Just a suggestion. 
Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?
I drive a 1995 Acura Integra GSR and my wife a 2002 VW GTI turbo. I would like to be driving any vintage Ferrari. 
Need more bass response
I have a Rogue 66 with a Rogue 88 amp. I replaced all tubes with Mullards (preamp takes 2 12au7's). I can't believe the base. I may have to put back one of the nos Philips that Rogue puts in from the factory to get a little shimmer back in. What I...
